Job hunters with English names have greater chance of finding a job
Thursday, March 11, 2010
According to a study released by the University of British Columbia, job hunters with English names have a 40 per cent greater chance of landing an interview compared to people with Chinese, Indian or Pakistani names.
The team who lead the study sent six thousand mock resumés to online job postings in the Toronto area, across 20 occupational categories. The study found that English names — like John Smith — had a much higher rate of callbacks than non-English names, despite identical resumés.
